Nancy Pelosi is going to show it to her Dems and if she likes they better.

Boner said he gonna let the House Republicans vote the way they want—no arm twisting this time.

Not on my corner!

We don't need no enhanced revenues.

Any year to year cuts in Federal spending?

[goldstategop]

Yup. Most people won’t see their taxes go up, they get to keep their benefits and 2013 will be blissful.

The only people who’ll notice are rich Obama voters but its not like they’ll notice the extra zeros missing from their income in 2013.

And we’ll charge the rest to our national credit card.

Kicking the can down the road

If they were actually borrowing existing money to finance deficit spending, then one could qualify it as kicking the can down the road. But that's not what is happening. This Printing-up-new-money-to-finance-government has a far more sinister effect. This effect is intentional. Who needs a tax increase on the top 1% which will only bring in $80 billion or so when you can devalue the currency instead and steal $6 trillion in net worth from those holding dollars instead. No sir, this isn't kicking the can down the road. This is high treason.
